Why should you wait to become pregnant after bariatric surgery?

Prevent pregnancy by using birth control pills, patches, or shots. Many women who have had trouble getting pregnant are more fertile after rapid weight loss. Be extra careful.
Please let your surgeon know if you become pregnant within 12 to 18 months after your bariatric surgery. Your surgeon will work closely with your doctor while you are pregnant to help with adequate nutrition and supplement information.
